I'm 21 weeks and up until Friday had had no alcohol since finding out I was pregnant. I've been starting to want it recently but given my horrific heartburn wine has been off the menu which has been my saving grace if we've been out for dinner.
Anyway, on Friday my husband wanted us to go for a couple of drinks before going to friends for dinner (things are rocky with us so he was trying to get us to hang out). We went to a bar which we both like but that has 241 cocktails every evening. I had 2 strawberry daiquiris. They were absolutely delicious but half way through the first I could feel the effects of the alcohol. I finished them both but had them very slowly (my husband had 6 drinks to my 2) but then started to feel so guilty. I thought that if the alcohol was making me feel funny, what was it doing to the baby. I've sworn not to drink another drop while I'm pregnant. In a way it was a good thing to have it as it got it out of my system.
However I've been feeling a lot less movement since Friday night. I normally feel regular kicks despite an anterior placenta and have felt only the odd one or two. I've got a Doppler so know there is a heartbeat but I'm just worried I've poisoned the poor little thing.
Can anyone give me any words of comfort? I've learnt my lesson.
